Re: bump steer

Moving the steering box to the front would reverse the counter affect of the drag link and amplify bump steer unless the angle of the drag link is also reversed.
Yes. Provided the fixed spring mount remains in the rear and the spring retains a traditional arch, the effective length of the drag link would need to decrease as the spring compresses.

Question: Is it possible to mount the steering box so the Pitman arm makes it's sweep between frame rails instead of fore and aft?
